Title: SpA Including PsA – Treatment Poster III

Session Type: Poster Session C

Session Time: 10:30AM-12:30PM

Background/Purpose: To evaluate treatment outcomes based on the performance of a preliminary data-driven definition (PD) of a positive MRI of the SIJ in comparison to the established ASAS definition (ED) indicating eligibility into a clinical trial.

Methods: COAST-X is a phase 3, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in nr-axSpA patients, receiving 80 mg ixekizumab every 2 or 4 weeks (wk), or placebo up to wk52. Baseline SIJ MRIs were scored by two central readers. Treatment arms were pooled for these descriptive analyses. The per protocol population was categorised using the total PD, PD-BME component, and the established ASAS definition (ED) of a positive SIJ MRI (Table 1). Baseline characteristics and the percentage of patients achieving ASDAS disease states, ASAS40 response and mean BASDAI change from baseline (CfB) are reported at wk16 based on each definition. Modified baseline observation carried forward (mBOCF) were used for missing data.

Results: At baseline, N=263 patients, the mean age was 39.6, 39.0 and 40.1, and percentage of males was 52.0%, 59.7% and 57.1% for PD (total), PD-BME and ED, respectively. Mean BASDAI and ASDAS were similar for PD, PD-BME and ED. 75% (196/263), 47% (124/263) and 62% (163/263) of patients were deemed MRI+ using PD, PD-BME and ED, respectively. At wk16, similar proportion of patients achieved ASAS40 in PD, PD-BME and ED (33.2%, 34.7% and 34.4%) and similar BASDAI CfB (-2.1, -2.3 and -2.1). The proportion of patients achieving an ASDAS inactive disease (10.7%, 12.9% vs 11.7%) or low disease activity (15.8%, 13.7% vs 14.1%) at wk16, was similar for PD, PD-BME and ED (Table 2).

Conclusion: Patients categorised using PD vs ED of a positive MRI, showed similar baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes after 16wks. The PD did not outperform the ED in the specificity of patient selection for a clinical trial in nr-axSpA.

All abstracts accepted to ACR Convergence are under media embargo once the ACR has notified presenters of their abstract’s acceptance. They may be presented at other meetings or published as manuscripts after this time but should not be discussed in non-scholarly venues or outlets. The following embargo policies are strictly enforced by the ACR.

Accepted abstracts are made available to the public online in advance of the meeting and are published in a special online supplement of our scientific journal, Arthritis & Rheumatology. Information contained in those abstracts may not be released until the abstracts appear online. In an exception to the media embargo, academic institutions, private organizations, and companies with products whose value may be influenced by information contained in an abstract may issue a press release to coincide with the availability of an ACR abstract on the ACR website. However, the ACR continues to require that information that goes beyond that contained in the abstract (e.g., discussion of the abstract done as part of editorial news coverage) is under media embargo until 10:00 AM ET on November 14, 2024. Journalists with access to embargoed information cannot release articles or editorial news coverage before this time. Editorial news coverage is considered original articles/videos developed by employed journalists to report facts, commentary, and subject matter expert quotes in a narrative form using a variety of sources (e.g., research, announcements, press releases, events, etc.).

Violation of this policy may result in the abstract being withdrawn from the meeting and other measures deemed appropriate. Authors are responsible for notifying colleagues, institutions, communications firms, and all other stakeholders related to the development or promotion of the abstract about this policy. If you have questions about the ACR abstract embargo policy, please contact ACR abstracts staff at [email protected].
